ADVISORY
Advisory includes participation, attitude, behavior, work completion and quality of work. You will lose points on assignments by not doing work or not doing it well (answers partially right or completely wrong). You may receive a detention for misbehaving, not doing assignments and failing tests (because, of course, you are not studying). Detentions lower grades.

HOMEWORK

Homework is usually assigned every day. Late work will not be accepted for full credit unless you are ill. If you are sick, please rest. You can hand in your homework the day after you return to school (or later if you have been sick for a while). Late assignments (NO ILLNESS) will be accepted ONCE a quarter with a good reason. After that you will receive a zero.  

TUTORS

You may not go outside with a tutor.  If a tutor tells you to meet him or her in the hallway at a certain time, please let me know. In a fire drill or emergency situation, I need to know where all my students are.

ASSIGNMENTS

You will use your notebooks for your paper homework assignments.  Please head papers with your name, the date and the assignment:

NAME:   Arsema Smith

DATE: September 7, 2025                                                                                 

ASSIGNMENT: Singular and plural nouns                                                                      

GOOGLE DOCS:

Name the Document---NOT untitled document.  PUT YOUR NAME, DATE AND ASSIGNMENT ON THE GOOGLE DOC!

COMPUTERS

You may NOT EVER use social media or play games. I monitor Chromebooks from my laptop and see what you are doing on your devices. The office also monitors your Chromebooks.

HALLWAY

Conduct in the hallway is tremendously important as the upper grade students set an example for the rest of the school. 

FIRE DRILL

You must exit and enter the building in complete silence.  Last person out must shut the door.  Someday this drill may save your life.
